Provision Promise

Provision Promise (provisionpromise.org) is a dignity-first nonprofit focused on addressing hygiene insecurity in the US. Hygiene insecurity stands at the intersection of education, employment, physical health, and mental health - yet it is a hidden crisis in the USA. Most people do not realize that food stamps (SNAP) do not cover basics like soap, shampoo, deodorant, or laundry detergent - and because those are non-perishable items, they are rarely donated. Children are bullied, college students skip classes, and adults skip interviews, and struggle with confidence to go to work and social events. Yet no one is talking about this issue on a national scale. We want to change that.

We’ve created a tech-enabled model for product distribution, leveraging Instacart, which provides dignity and the power of choice. This also eliminates the need for a dedicated supply chain system and countless volunteers, and enables the ability to scale quickly and efficiently. More than 1,400 organizations have already reached out to request hygiene products with little marketing, indicating that this is the tip of the iceberg in terms of need.

As of July 7, 2026, we have received requests from 61 different organizations in North Texas who need our help.

We give what's donated to us. Sometimes we have items to share, lots of times we don't. We give what's available.

We are struggling to continue to provide hygiene due to funding, inflation and the sheer number of clients we are currently seeing.

Current donations can't keep pace with our exponential growth. We focus on food but would like to offer more items in our 3500 sq. ft, client choice grocery store format food pantry. We have the space!
